I Get Migraine Headaches

You ever feel like sticking a knife in the side of your head and maybe, just maybe, it would relieve some of the pain. Something has got to give...

Yep, thought of that this morning. Called into work ( I never call in, except for migraines). I'm having a horrible spell right now. Pls. Don't post telling me what to use. I'm a 12 year chronic migraine patient. I'm very seasoned in this area. And have used everything under the sun included week long treatments that cost 27,000.00.

Hi I migraines as well I went to a neurologist and took and MRI and it came back Ok. He told me B-2 vitamins help with migraines u can take 100 mcg 4 once a day or 250 mcg 2 a day. I take 250 for over a year and do not get them like I used to. Give them a chance and u will see a difference thought I would pass this along to any of u. Hope u feel better.

Sorry! My daughter gets them, too, and they are awful!! I agree with sunny...when I took her to the doctor recently he said riboflavin, riboflavin, riboflavin!!!

not one doc (reg. or neurologist) has suggested that for me. I'm going to ask about that. Thanks. I hope they are able to get them under control for your daughter.

Thank you. This year was really rough for her! She started getting like one a week. :( The attendance office was not really happy about that at all. :/ But just getting her to the doctor was a feat in itself. He gave her a prescription for something strong to help when she's feeling one coming on. Those seem to work but like you said...they only give you like 10 of them. So I'm hoping the riboflavin is going to help prevent them in the first place! That's so crazy no doctor ever mentioned that to you. How frustrating!! I hope you find something that helps you, too...

I run into people and they said they have never had a migraine. If only I could say that!!! If I got 1 a month I would do the happy dance.

I pray one day they will vanish.

me too, how are you feeling today? I took a double dose of Prednisone and that seemed to help me.

Today it's about a 5 out of 10 pain scale. Able to work, at the moment. I take sumval needless injects ( 200 a shot).

I can't seem to get this migraine spell under control. It's been almost 2 weeks.

Hope you're having a migraine free day!!

Ask your Dr. about Relpax. It cures the worst migraine you ever imagined in less than 30 mins with zero side effects.

I used to take that one, it worked some of the time for me

Everything else makes me sick.

I used to suffer from them.
Your entire day is wasted.

I don't know if this will help you, but I was able to get a sort of relief with an intake of caffeine and a damp cloth covering my eyes.
TxBtrflyX2 · 46-50, F
cold rags and ice packs are a ritual of mine

That's good to keep the blood flowing and vessels open.
Caffeine helps in that too.
